Rings

Greyson · 02-07-2013, 12:22 AM

For many years the only ring I wore on a regular basis was my college ring. It was very special to me because my twin sister gave it to me and I was the first college grad in the family. I stopped wearing it a few years back.

When I get married I will wear a simple band on the traditional finger, left hand. I am unsure if I want white gold or yellow gold. If I were to pick a ring that is not a traditional wedding band, it would be yellow gold with onyx inlaid and one small diamond. (That is the more flashy guy inside of me.)

RyRy and I have plain silver bands, worn on the left hand. They look pretty plain on the outside but on the inside they both say "I am my beloved's and my beloved is mine."(Song of Solomon 6:3) We always face the inscription toward our hearts. Cheesy? yes but I love it.

Spritz and I went to the jewelers together. Hers' was picked first. White gold with a little stone, and a Celtic knot design that is done with the actual ring. So there is spaces between and through the ring intself. I love the way it sits on her finger. Mine was decided based on her choice. Pewter band with a Celtic knot design on top of the metal in a blacker offset color from the pewter.

I'm thinking we may have to get another set when we have our wedding. It just makes sense to me to do that... These rings can be transfered to our right ring fingers at that time. I have heard in the past about non-heteros having their ring on the right hand. I'm not a fan of that... commitment is commitment, it's not a gay/straight thing.

I have my parents. So when I get married I will have them sized to fit us both.

Update: Well I did get married and my ring is 14k white gold with seven black sapphires inlaid into the ring. In my thinking, perfect for a guy like me. The plain white gold band but with a little flash, aka girly bling. Yes, a solid butch wedding band.

Regardless of my relationship status, I was always partial to wearing band type rings and only on my left ring finger. The only significance was it helped me distinguish my left from my right.

Have had my eye on this one for a couple of years now:

I have been wearing the same, wide (probably .75 inch), silver band for 15+ years. It is one of those double rings where one slides on the top of the other. I love the thing. I picked it up one day from a street vendor in Chapel Hill, NC, when I was visiting a girlfriend. A large percentage of people think it indicates I am married, due to where it is located. It doesn't look like a wedding ring to me.

It is thick and heavy, which I really like. I like heavy watches and shoes, as well. I am sure I would get a wide band if TF and I married.

I was given a ring last year for Christmas from my partner. It's heart shaped gold with diamond baguettes, which is fine by me. I wear it on my left ring finger.

I recently bought her a nice ring, white gold promise ring. She wears it on her left ring finger as well.

I never really thought about rings like this till I got with her, but who knows might turn into something more.
